Description:

Ever since we got our 92 245 we have had a spongy feeling pedal, it felt like there was air in the lines but the system had been thoroughly bled. Upon investigation we found that there was a considerable amount of flex in the pedal / booster / master cylinder assembly under moderate braking pressure. This meant some of the force being applied from the driver's foot was being wasted and was not being converted to hydraulic pressure. To fix this we created a reinforcement bracket that attaches to the master cylinder mounting studs and connects it to our strut brace. Due to the distance between our attachment point at the brake master cylinder and the firewall we were able to achieve a 10x reduction in deformation.

Deflection of the stock system under moderate pedal pressure was measured as .030" at the end of the master cylinder.
